The High:
I first smoked B-52 in Switzerland, the first impression was a lasting one. The high is not for the inexperienced. In Switzerland I found myself watching VH1's Best of the 80's, and completely bugged out, I curled up fetal position in my bed, too high to even pass out, heart racing wonder

I grew this strain side by side with my Pure Power Plant and have been putting off the grow report because I have had my B52 curing and now that I have it out and I'm smoking the good stuff I figure I will lend my report.

When I started this plant I had over 12 plants in veg and 6 were B52. I we

Potency7  StatureSomewhat short and squat

In this grow, two plants were nirvana Big Buds, and two were B-52s. the B-52 far exceeded the Big Bud in all areas except for numbers of buds.

Each B-52 had a small number of good sized buds, topped by one almighty cola, nestled in the middle of my scrog.

I was very impressed with the ease of this grow. From germination to harvest I didn't encounter a single problem other than one hermaphrodite which occurred too late into the flowering cycle to effect any of the other plants. This entire grow was conducted under a combination of soft white and warm ...continued

I bought the B52 seeds from SD shop when I was in a'dam. I was looking for some "not-too-expensive" type of sativa taste seeds. B52 (Nirvana) was on my list because of the good comments I read on this StrainGuide. Well, it turned out to be true. An excellent strain, well worth the $15 and doesn't seem to receive much credit!

Grow:
-------
Germinated 3 out of 10 in the pack. One turned out female. The other two plants that I was planning to grow was Shaman (Dutch passion) and White Rhino (Nirvana). Unfortunately all White Rhinos turned out to be male and I got one female Shaman.

The grow was straightforward, no sign of nute burn or stress. On the 6th week when I used PK13/14, the meter was showing 2.5uS and had no nute problems. I flushed on 7th and 8th week and the taste of a quick dried bud was close to excellent...

The buds were full of crystals and resin. Not too much yield though. A huge cola and some nuggets on the side and some pop corns... Compared to the Shaman, the yield was pretty low but full of shiny crystals...

Had some odor problems eventhough I had my carbon filter. I guess it's time to change the carbons...

Taste:
--------
I cannot say that I'm an expert on this. It was a taste much like hash but never tasted something similar to this. A spicy aroma, joyfull, no taste of green (probly because of the flush)

Smoke:
---------
B52 is a potent strain. Takes the stress out, opens your mind to different and parallel thoughts about details at the same time. Wathing movies is strongly recommended, especially LOTR, all three, non stop!

The bottom line; top quality strain, really worth the price!

This was a first time grow, so the efficiency of the garden wasn't that spectacular, however I will be making improvements for future grows.

B-52 was a good plant to start with, since it taught my valuable lessons both in regards to Sativa and Indica traits. I gave it an ease score of 7 because o
